STOCKTON – A man who tried to take cologne from a department store in the 5100 block of Pacific Avenue around 6:55 p.m. Thursday slashed three guards as he tried to abscond with several items, according to police.

Jeffery Harrison, 49, was arrested on suspicion of robbery after he was eventually stopped. A guard from the store alerted two more in the mall, and when they confronted Harrison, he pulled out a box cutter and slashed at them, police said.

One guard was cut on the left calf, and one was cut on the right arm. They were treated at area hospitals for their injuries.
